If we have a list of requests in our plug list, send it to the driver in
one go, if possible. The driver must set mq_ops->queue_rqs() to support
this, if not the usual one-by-one path is used.

What is the dependency on shared tags here?
From what I've seen it's just about submitting requests; the only
difference to shared tags is the way the tags are allocated.
